January 21, 2014 (CHICAGO) --

Chicago mother Nicole Harris was expected to appear in court Tuesday for a hearing to receive a certificate of innocence and to clear her officially from the murder conviction that kept her behind bars for nearly eight years.

Harris was wrongfully accused of killing her 4-year-old son, Jaquari Dancy, and that verdict was overturned.

Harris was freed last year. Tuesday's hearing will take the conviction off of her record.
